Are you serious Brah?

That's about as ambiguous as asking how long is a piece of string... Lol, how do you expect us to know how your car's running if you havnt told us anything about it? Haha

Turbo? Exhaust? Intercooler? Engine management? Any other mods?

13psi and only, 240hp, I'd say there's something wrong, or your car is bog stock.

Its Ovaboost - dyno reads rediculously low. My RB30DET made 320rwhp on that dyno @ 17psi (big auto), but still managed to run an 11.7 with a 2.2 60 foot time. I wouldnt be too worried about the number (assuming its a relatively stock motor). Mick is an awesome tuner.

if their dyno does read low then that sounds about right man.

now im on 275rwhp at autoworx on 12 -> 10 psi (12 then drops to 10), stock turbo/ injectors, fmic, full turbo-back exhaust, pod filter, vi-pec v44, walbro fuel pump.

i still gotta get rid of that gts25-t sticker on the back, to release an extra 10rwhp..

I'm pushing 260 ish rwhp in my 350zee

and my old r33 skyline r33 made 278rwhp at 13psi with just a 3 1/2 cat back and intercooler

but the standard 7psi sounds pretty good!

not bad for a 3.5na

mods ?

240-280rwhp is pretty good for a std turbo stock ecu car with the usual bolt on mods

ok so does that mean i should go somewhere else to get another run?

Means you shouldn't read too much into it, the number is just a number. My car has been on 4 different dynos and gotten hugely different numbers every time. It's a tool for tuning, for comparative purposes they are inaccurate at best.

Dont get too carried away with a dyno number leave that for the big block boys who can't turn corners...

you can have 1000hp if you like, just to say how 'cool' you are but end of the day i bet on a street road to 100km/h a 300hp car would chomp it due to getting the power down and response of the engine....

the dyno is a rolling road for tunning and no more than that

ovaboost are great tuners, and they themselves told me last week when i went to check on my cars progress that their dyno is known as a 'lowish reading' dyno.

i've got a great idea for u tho, if u want to pull all the 14yo chicks with ur hectic stock skyline, go find yourself a place that uses a dyna pack.

it sure helps all the dumbass's in NZ pull 1000rwhp from a turbo rated at 700hp

Dumbass' in NZ? Haha, in six years in WA I have seen more idiots on the road, more accidents, more prangs, more wrecks and cars dumped on the road than 19 years of living in NZ. Mind you, the Import seen is alot larger in NZ, so maybe it's a numbers game?

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
